Family pics

My sister Krista took some family photos for us. She did a great job!

Halloween

We had a fun Halloween. We went to our ward Trunk or Treat on Wednesday and Kim's ward on Friday. We went around our neighborhood on Saturday. Ethan got lots of candy.

For breakfast on Halloween day, we had orange eggs and green toast. Ethan loved it!

Ward trunk or treat. It was freezing. They ended up moving it inside but the trick or treating was still outside.

Caitlin chilling in the stroller on Halloween night.

Caitlin crying because I was taking a picture and not holding her! I made her cute tutu!

A rare sight!! Caitlin smiling and mom isn't holding her!

Scary pirate and pretty ballerina before the ward trunk or treat.



Our pumpkin!

Busy Busy

Caitlin had her 4 month appointment today. Here are her stats:
Weight: 11 pds 12 ozs (14th %)
Height: 25 inches (78th%)

She rolled over officially for the first time last week. She loves to talk and drool. She is a huge mommy's girl and will cry for almost anyone that holds her except for me. I love it most of the time but sometimes my arm needs a break! She likes to take short naps all day and wake me up at least 2 to 3 times during the night to eat.

She had to get shots today but only cried for a minute. Dr. McClure recommended that Ethan and I get the H1N1 vax (high risk since Caitlin is under 6 months old) so we held hands and both got shots. Ethan shed tears for both of us. Jeremy will get his soon.

We went to Utah a few weeks back for Jeremy's sister's 50th birthday. We had a fun time especially because we flew there. There is no way I was driving with a baby who likes to nurse every 1 1/2 hours.

We are looking forward to Halloween. Ethan is going to be a pirate and Caitlin will be a ballerina. We love the cooler weather and can't wait for the holidays!

This could be me!

Caitlin's Blessing day

Caitlin was blessed at home on Sunday September 6th. Her dress was made by a lady in Kim's ward using my wedding dress as material. She was absolutely beautiful.
This is the best family picture we could get. Ethan didn't want his picture taken.

Caitlin's face is blurry but a good shot of the dress.

The blanket behind her was also made from my wedding dress fabric.

Her yummy cake. White with strawberry mousse.

Ethan birthday

Ethan had a great time celebrating his birthday twice. He woke up on his actual birthday to a spiderweb that Spiderman left for him. Video is at bottom.





He had two birthday cakes. We had to sing and relight the candles twice for his first cake.


Here is his Spiderman cake. Only took me 2 hours to do!! He loved it though.

We had his family birthday party on Sunday. We have bagels and pull apart rolls made by Jeremy. We played Spiderman BINGO with cousins.


We went to Peter Piper Pizza on his actual birthday with Kim, Deacon and Sedona. Caitlin had a great time.

He was so excited to open presents from mom and dad. He got Hungry Hungry Hippos, two Colorwonder coloring books, BOLT and Mack with a trailer(from CARS).

Overall he had a great birthday. We are so lucky to have this little guy in our family.

Ethan is 4!

Guess who is 4 today? Ethan is!! We are going to Peter Piper Pizza for lunch and then home to see Grandma Bonnie who is flying into town today. Ethan is having his Spiderman party on Sunday. He is so excited. I make and decorate his cake every year and he has been dying for me to make it!! We love you Ethan and hope you have a GREAT day!
